Microsoft Photosynth overwhelmed by demand

Overload for Microsoft Photosynth within hours of launching this new 3D photo manipulation software, completely overloaded with people all trying to use the software.

Luckily the guys at Microsoft had it up and running again by 7pm. But it has been said in a Live Labs Blog from Microsoft that the site Photosynth.com is on a special static/read-only mode for now.

The blog was updated at 4.50pm Thursday, were Microsoft said they were close to resolving the issue and that they would be back up shortly. If you went onto the site before 7pm yesterday you would have been greeted with a message saying that “The Photosynth site is a little overwhelmed just now,”
Finally at 6.40pm Microsoft said that the service was restored, and that Photosynth.com is back online.

If you don’t know what the hell we are talking about with photosynth.com then where have you been? Photosynth.com is the new software that automatically stitches together digital images and re-created a three-dimensional walk through style image, basically it allows you to see you photo’s as if you were back and reliving the memory.

You basically connect to photosynth.com, up load your photos, and with the help of the software and your imagination manipulate them to create the almost virtual 360-degree image.
